Hiya, Sugar Heart here ^o^
I would like to announce that now special looks is far more tolerated!. We now accept someone having slightly non-typical colors, or even something more special, like a second tail, very large, or mini pokemon, or maybe even something even more weird!.
You WILL have to expect that most of the choices are going to be noticed and maybe questioned by us, buuuuuuuuut we are very forgiving (or so I hope, please tell me if I'm a jerk T^T ). We will obviously not accept shiny pokemon (except with one event that's coming up!) or a complete recolor. Let me try to explain how the color thing would work. Let's say your OC is a mightyena. It's back coat is black, but with the freedom here, it can be brown, green, or white!. Of course rainbow coats could be a thing too, but try not to let the looks of the OC define the OC. It is perfectly fine to have it be a major part of how they work, but a nice character like a braggart, or someone that's shy about it's looks is what we like with that ^o^
Of course you are allowed to completely ignore the fact that they are multicolored fancy pokemon and have their thing be completely unrelated. In fact, I would love it xD
Pokemon in this universe will be much more used to the varied colors of pokemon, and since pokemon are a lot of different colors and looks despite them being the same species in CANNON (games, anime, manga, ect) it's fine there too for you professional nerdsies >u<
Anyway, that's it. I will explain the difference in shiny pokemon soon!
